'ADOBO QUEEN' REINVENTS ADOBO WITH US POULTRY

food for thought

- MILLIE & KARLA REYES

A proud and shining moment, one warm but breezy afternoon, was seeing my cousin Nancy, the self-proclaimed "Adobo Queen," in cooking action with the esteemed US Ambassador Mary Kay Carlson at the US Ambassador's residence in Makati. The occasion was the book launch of Nancy Reyes-Lumen's Adobo Collection, in partnership with the US Poultry and Egg Export Council and the United Soybean Board.

Nancy takes pride in sharing tips and her adobo know-how, gathered from extensive learnings, research and self-cooking trials in her own test kitchen. She shares her priceless and treasured recipes and her most popular belief that "adobo should be slow-cooked, not rushed!"
